List of power stations in Tasmania
This is a list of active power stations in Tasmania, Australia. Candidates for this list must already be commissioned and capable of generating 1-megawatt (1,300 hp) or more of electricity.
Gas
[edit]Thermal gas
[edit]These power stations use gas combustion to power steam turbines that generate some or all of the electricity they produce.

Bell Bay | 41°8′31″S 146°54′9″E / 41.14194°S 146.90250°E | 135 | 181,038 | 3 | Natural gas | No | |
Tamar Valley | 210 | 281,615 | 5 | Natural gas | Yes |
Note that the above three power stations are in fact the same power station listed upon commissioning after conversion to gas and recommissioning after a turbine upgrade. It has been decommissioned since 2009.
Gas (reciprocating)
[edit]These power stations use gas combustion in reciprocating engines to generate some or all of the electricity they produce.
